On my Toshiba Satellite Pro 4300 laptop I get pixmap corruption.

You could try to always make the cursor 1cm big for example - isn't that
a good thing?
Mostly what you need is bigger cursors
Could we have the cursor size be automatically set from the dpi?
Is it already?

Hi all,
On quite a few keyboards these days there are extra keys.
One of which is the power button. How would I get the power
button working?
I read the Keyboard-and-Console-HOWTO but as far as I could
follow, the only examples were for mapping new keys to existing
functions

You can map those new keys to run anything. you can write a script

What I meant to say, before I so rudely interrupted myself, was that
you can emulate multiple cursors etc by having multiple X servers.
At the moment you cannot have multiple X-servers on one screen, nor can you
have them on multiple monitors.
The first, I doubt will ever be changed.
